Tadoru 辿 Trek, Journey

Trek辿 Tadoru (Japanese)

This is one of those very rare characters with no original in Chinese. The Japanese made it up. Meaning "Journey" or "Trek," it consists of two radicals: a mountain 山 enveloped by the "progress radical" and so suggests the feeling of a traveler in the mountains. It means to seek, and also to arrive.

A trek involves many vicissitudes, so I did this in red, mixed with black and white to indicate that many things can happen when one is on a journey.
